multi-talented young lady. We've already posted two stories from her
and she's accepted assignments for more... watch for them. She writes
poetry "just for fun" - here's the first of her two submissions: Remember Me...

| NOTES
FROM
THE
EDITOR - TODAY IS SATURDAY, APRIL 9,
2011 |
|
Politico reported at 8 p.m. that Reps and Dems had reached agreement on
rider issues, such as Planned Parenthood, but still hadn’t gotten
together on budget numbers. As of 10 p.m. no more news. Editor’s Note: It is April 2011 and
the federal government may shut down because the Democratic Congress
passed no budget last year. I think that’s worthy of note… don’t you?
Also in News: Labor law backers say voters get voice on
public contracts; and Taylor Accepting Applications for Small Business
Advisory Council. Events: Boehner’s Open Door Program; Edison Hosts
Program to Inspire Businesses, Entrepreneurs and Community; and Edison
to Host Administrative Professionals Day Program. Blogs:
Ambitious for Medicaid; Ohio Inc.; and Democrats Need a Shutdown. Obituaries:
Helen M. (Berning) Fullenkamp, Ray E. Caupp. For
